Quoted from 1st post

"Note this recovery and the one for the LG Vortex have a service that instantly reboots out of recovery once you load it & I disabled it and thats why you get a E: "Bad Boot Message" on inital startup. Its completely fine."

I want to make a backup of my current default rom before messing around with custom ones and deleting default system apps. That flash_image and the recovery .img you provided will simply enable me to get into debugging mode from where I can make a backup of my current default rom, right? It will not flash my rom with any custom roms or will it? Also, afterwards how can I restore my default debugging mode if I need to reclaim my cell phone warranty or something?

If you could explain step-by-step what all of those commands do it would be nice also. I'd like to understand the whole procedure before trying this out.

Fabulous method! I would suggest adding that one needs to unzip the necessary files that you provide: the recovery image and the flash_zip. I would also clarify that if the install-recovery.sh script is not found its still a go for those that aren't down with linuz and his CLI speak. Thanks!

Can someone please help me. I'm basically a newbie and don't know how to install this, I just don't get every thing after "To use copy flash_image and recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img to the root of your sdcard." and then im stuck on flashing with adb and terminal and shit like that, and people at school call me a nerd hahhaa
